Subject: [PATCH 1/2] guix: lint: Add an optional parameter for a store connection.

From: Christopher Baines <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 26 Dec 2019 18:01:03 +0000

Previously, the derivation lint checker establishes a connection to the store
for each supported system of each package. This change uses the same store
connection for all supported systems, with the option of setting a parameter
for a store connection which will be used instead of establishing a new
connection.

Previously, running the derivation linter for all packages would take around 6
and a half minutes, with this change, without setting the
%lint-checker-store-connection parameter, the time is reduced to around 4
minutes.

* guix/lint.scm (%lint-checker-store-connection): New parameter.
(check-derivation): Arrange the code so that it's possible to either run with
the store from the new parameter, or open a new connection via the with-store
syntax.
